"Private Markets, Fashion Trends, Prison Camps, Dissenters and Defectors. North Korea is one of the most troubled societies on earth. The country's 24 million people live under a violent dictatorship led by a single family, which relentlessly pursues the development of nuclear arms, which periodically incites risky military clashes with the larger, richer, liberal South, and which forces each and every person to play a role in the "theater state" even as it pays little more than lip service to the wellbeing of the overwhelming majority. With this deeply anachronistic system eventually failed in the 1990s, it triggered a famine that decimated the countryside and obliterated the lives of many hundreds of thousands of people. However, it also changed life forever for those who survived. A lawless form of marketization came to replace the iron rice bowl of work in state companies, and the Orwellian mind control of the Korean Workers' Party was replaced for many by dreams of trade and profit. A new North Korea Society was born from the horrors of the era one that is more susceptible to outside information than ever before with the advent of k-pop and video-carrying USB sticks. This is the North Korean society that is described in this book. In seven fascinating chapters the authors explore what life is actually like in modern North Korea today for the ordinary "man and woman on the street." They interview experts and tap a broad variety of sources to bring a startling new insider's view of North Korean society from members of Pyongyang's ruling families to defectors from different periods and regions, to diplomats and NGOs with years of experience in the country, to cross-border traders from neighboring China, and textual accounts appearing in English, Korean and Chinese sources. The resulting stories reveal the horror as well as the innovation and humor which abound in this fascinating country."

This study analyses the representation of South Korean collectivism seen in South Korea’s past winter fashion trends. Collectivism is one of Confucianism-based values that currently exist in the South Korean society. Collectivism is a value that puts an emphasis on collective identity and interests over individual. In a society with collectivistic values, individuals tend to have the interdependent self construal that focuses on social relationships and harmony. Collectivistic values that prevail in the middle of the South Korean society can be seen through the attitude of the people towards numerous social phenomenons, one of them being the fast-growing fashion trends. Therefore, the research question proposed for this study is how the winter fashion trends show the collectivistic values of the South Korean society. This literature study uses qualitative-descriptive method of research. The purpose of this study is to reveal the representation of collectivistic values of South Koreans through their ways of facing winter fashion trends. The results show the South Koreans’ ways of responsing to the winter fashion trends that exhibit collectivistic values as a result of the interdependent self-construal of the people."
